Using the Formula Find dy/dx if

Derivative of ax

Reviewing the Algebra of Logarithms At what point on the graph of the function y = 2t – 3 does the tangent line have slope 21? The slope is the derivative:

Derivative of ln x

A Tangent through the Origin A line with slope m passes through the origin and is tangent to the graph of y = ln x. What is the value of m? This problem is a little more difficult than it looks, since we do not know the point of tangency. However, we do know two important facts about that point: It has coordinates (a , ln a) for some positive a, and The tangent line there has slope m = 1 / a since the tangent line passes through the origin, its slope is:

A Tangent through the Origin Setting these two formulas for m equal to each other, we have:

How Fast does a Flu Spread? The spread of a flu in a certain school is modeled by the equation where P(t) is the total number of students infected t days after the flu was first noticed. Many of them may already be well again at time t. Estimate the initial number of students infected with the flu. How fast is the flu spreading after 3 days? When will the flu spread at its maximum rate? What is this rate?

How Fast does a Flu Spread? The graph of P as a function of t is shown in Figure 3.58.

How Fast does a Flu Spread? P(0) = 100 / (1 + e3 ) = 5 students to the nearest whole number. To find the rate at which the flu spreads, we find dP/dt. To find dP/dt, we need to invoke the Chain Rule twice: At t = 3, then, dP/dt = 100 / 4 = 25. The flu is spreading to 25 students per day.

How Fast does a Flu Spread? We could estimate when the flu is spreading the fastest by seeing where the graph of y = P(t) has the steepest upward slope, but we can answer both the “when” and the “what” parts of this question most easily by finding the maximum point on the graph of the derivative. We see by tracing on the curve that the maximum rate occurs at about 3 days, when (as we have just calculated) the flu is spreading at a rate of 25 students per day.
